55 mins #138 Oct 26, 26 Should Christians Celebrate Halloween? It’s the week before Halloween, and Leslie and Morgan tackle the question every Christian family argues about: board up the windows, go all in, or something in between? Between childhood costume confessions (a sequined crop top at a nursing home, a ladybug costume that never happened), they dig into the real history of the holiday, the megaphone protesters at a church trunk-or-treat, and why you might want to stop “celebrating” Halloween and start redeeming it. Plus: where they draw the line on witches, Harry Potter, and the “scantily clad nurse,” and why showing up to a lingerie party in full gray sweatsuits turned out to be the best night ever.
40 mins #136 Oct 12, 26 Am I a good person… or just a nice person? Unlike the other fruits of the spirit, goodness isn’t something you can muscle through Morgan and Leslie unpack why it’s the one fruit that exposes your true motivation and why the only way to get it is to actually spend time with the God who is good.
50 mins #135 Oct 05, 26 Being Nice Isn't the Same as Being Kind Jake is back to talk about the fruit of the spirit he had to work hardest at. As our series on the fruits of the spirit continues, Morgan and Leslie dig into kindness and gentleness with Jake. They talk about why being nice isn't the same as being kind, why hard conversations can be the kindest ones, and what led to Jake's "year of gentleness." Plus, how Jake and Emily keep their relationship on track and why Jake thinks there's no such thing as a good breakup.
